淨土五會念佛誦經觀行儀卷中．下 3.56

3.56

歸去來　誰能西邊受輪迴
且共念彼彌陀號　往生極樂坐化臺
歸去來　裟婆世境苦難哉
急手專心念彼佛　彌陀淨土法門開
歸去來　誰能此處受其災
總勤同緣諸眾等　努力相將歸去來
且共往生安樂界　特花普獻彼如來
歸去來　生老病死苦相催
晝夜勤須念彼佛　極樂逍遙坐寶臺
歸去來　娑婆苦處哭哀哀
急須專念彌陀佛　長辭五濁見如來
歸去來　彌陀淨剎法門開
但有須心能念佛　臨終決定坐化臺
歸去來　晝夜為聞唱苦哉
努力迴心歸淨土　摩尼殿上禮如來
歸去來　娑婆穢境不堪停
急手須歸安樂國　見佛聞法五無生
歸去來　三塗地獄實堪憐
千生萬死無休息　多劫常為猛焰燃
聲聲為念彌陀號　一時聞者坐金臺
歸去來　刀山劍樹實難當
飲酒食肉貪財色　長劫將身入鑊湯
不如西方快樂處　永超生死離無常

Return! Who could endure saṃsāra in this Western quarter? / Let us together recite that name of Amitābha, / And be reborn in Sukhāvatī, seated upon a transformed terrace. / Return! The worldly realm of Sahā is full of unbearable suffering! / Quickly, single-mindedly recite that Buddha's name; / Amitābha's Pure Land Dharma gate is opened wide. / Return! Who could bear the disasters here? / Urging all those with shared karmic affinity, / Strive together to lead one another and return! / Let us together be reborn in the Land of Bliss, / Offering special flowers everywhere to that Tathāgata. / Return! Birth, old age, sickness, and death urgently press upon us; / Day and night, one must diligently recite that Buddha's name, / To roam at ease in Sukhāvatī, seated upon a jewelled terrace. / Return! In the place of suffering in Sahā, weep and wail bitterly! / Quickly, single-mindedly recite Amitābha Buddha's name; / Take eternal leave of the five defilements to see the Tathāgata. / Return! Amitābha's pure land Dharma gate is opened wide; / If only you have a sincere mind able to recite the Buddha's name, / At the end of life you are certain to sit upon a transformed terrace. / Return! Day and night, cries of 'How bitter!' are heard; / Strive to turn your mind and return to the Pure Land, / To pay homage to the Tathāgata in the mani palace. / Return! The defiled realm of Sahā cannot be lingered in; / Quickly, you must return to the Land of Bliss, / To see the Buddha, hear the Dharma, and awaken to the unborn. / Return! The three wretched paths and the hells are truly pitiable; / A thousand births and ten thousand deaths without rest, / Through many kalpas constantly burned by fierce flames. / Utter recitation of Amitābha's name voice after voice; / All who hear it at once sit upon golden terraces. / Return! The mountain of knives and grove of swords are truly hard to bear; / Drinking wine, eating meat, and craving wealth and sex, / For long kalpas one's body enters the cauldron of boiling water. / It cannot compare to the place of joy in the West, / Forever transcending birth and death, free from impermanence.
